The National Democratic Congress (NDC) says the NDC Election Campaign has strengthened its legal enforcement team in Grenada amidst what it says are significant ongoing inaccuracies on the final electoral list. 

In a statement, the NDC says the Campaign has secured the services of legal election experts from the region for the fast-approaching June 23, 2022 election.  

The legal experts arrived in Grenada on Sunday, June 19 and will complement the NDC’s locally based legal team. This enhanced legal team is led by NDC’s Treasurer, Andrea St Bernard, who is an attorney-of-law by profession.  

The NDC says it found this reinforcement prudent following what it says are countless inaccuracies spotted on the recently published final electoral list.  

Additionally, the NDC Election Campaign says it has received firsthand reports of ongoing efforts to disenfranchise citizens of their right to vote through voter intimidation, suppression, and other unsavoury tactics.  

The NDC Election Campaign says it has informed international election observer organisations, which include the United Nations (UN), the Carter Foundation, and others, of its concerns.  

The NDC states it continues to be vigilant and proactive on behalf of all Grenadian patriots, to ensure a free and fair General Election.
